Sarah Pattison has been living in or near the Athens, Georgia area since 1983 and has a BFA in drawing /painting from UGA 1991. She continues to maintain an art practice of her own and has been teaching a variety of art classes and workshops since 1997.

A defining moment occurred in 1992 when she was introduced to Jungian dreamwork. Since that time she has kept dream journals and worked closely with her dreams individually and in local dream groups. In 2002, Sarah attended her first workshop with The Painting Experience with Stewart Cubley (co-author of Life, Paint, and Passion) and knew immediately that the course of her facilitation was taking a new direction. She found that process painting was a very interactive way to work with the part of the self that creates dreams and that the same symbolism and logic applies to both. Since that first workshop, Sarah has worked with Stewart extensively and continues to mentor with him.

Sarah currently teaches and facilitates through the Georgia Center for Personal and Professional Development, The Loran Smith Cancer Support Center, and The Athens Regional Hospital’s Mind/Body Institute. All are located in Athens.
